More Crytek Rumors

Though Crytek refuted rumors that
emerged over the weekend
that the company is on the brink of bankruptcy,
Kotaku has rumors of their own of troubles at the German developer, claiming
these are based on information from current and former Crytek employees. This
includes accounts of late paychecks (which have not prevented co-founders Cevat
and Avni Yerli from allegedly continuing to drive their Ferraris to work); staff
departures; the cancellation of a couple of projects including Ryse 2;
and word of rampant staff dissatisfaction with the direction of the company.
They conclude reporting not receiving responses from Crytek to questions raised
in the story, in spite of recent assurances they would get the other side of the
story, and say Avni Yerli has allegedly told staff not to talk with the press
about what's going on.
